WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW

What Is the Superion® IDS?

The Superion IDS is a minimally invasive spinal implant designed to relieve pressure on the spinal nerves caused by moderate lumbar spinal stenosis. This condition narrows the spinal canal and can lead to painful compression of nerves, resulting in leg pain, cramping, and difficulty walking or standing upright.

The Superion device acts as a spacer placed between the spinous processes in the lower back to gently open the narrowed space and restore nerve function—without cutting or removing bone or tissue.

You may be a candidate for the Superion IDS if:

You’ve been diagnosed with moderate lumbar spinal stenosis
You’ve had at least 6 months of conservative treatment (e.g., physical therapy, injections, medications) without adequate relief
You experience leg pain, numbness, or tingling that improves when you bend forward or sit down
You want to avoid traditional decompression surgery or spinal fusion

Preparation

The procedure is performed under light sedation in an outpatient surgical center or hospital setting.

Implant Delivery

A small incision is made in the lower back. The Superion device, made of titanium, is inserted using specialized tools and positioned between the vertebrae—without damaging nearby bone or tissue.

Stabilization

The implant props open the spinal canal space, relieving nerve compression and allowing you to stand upright without pain.

Recovery

The entire procedure typically takes less than an hour, and most patients return home the same day.

Most patients experience a noticeable reduction in leg and back pain within days
There is minimal bleeding, no hospital stay, and low risk of complications
Recovery time is significantly faster than traditional spinal surgery
You’ll be advised to avoid strenuous activity for a short period while healing

Patients are typically encouraged to walk and return to light daily activities within a few days.

Performed as an outpatient procedure
